  1. Yeah ok she probably does £3k a year and is 55 but hey you could always have a 911 and an old banger for the daily grind! :grin: Im not saying they arent expensive to run, but its like the C you could spend a fortune on the VR6 engine. But it can be done well on a budget as well.
  2. Dont think they are that scary mate. My mums friend has run a 993 for 8 years. Only costs her £500 insurance and she hasnt had any scary bills. Plus she has probably only lost £4k in deprciation. Plus people do say the new models 996 + cost less for servicing :shrug: Has to depend on what car you originally buy and as you say who you take it to.
  3. I agree. Do love the Scirocco but as nice as it is to look at and drive still doesnt change the fact it has no soul :grin: Mostly down to the boring boring VW 2.0 engines. Upgrade of the even more boring 1.8T engines...

    Hi mate It does just clip in. 3 tabs hold it in place at the top which you push down to slide them out of the bodywork. Hope that makes sense! Matt
  5. Were there no men there doing the test? Only joking, really impressive result :grin: As bristolbaron said lot of people talk the talk but not many walk the walk (or should that be lap the lap?)
  6. If they defo are the same I could be interested in a set depending on condition Cheers Matt
  7. It is an American article though so he is correct (unfortunately for them!)
  8. You gonna give it a go then? :grin: Really good door card removal guide here: http://www.torquevw.com/how_to_guides/c ... ards.shtml
  9. Honestly why dont you just sand back the indicators and pin stripe them?
  10. Really like the silver one. Not seen too many silver G60's 8)
  11. A nice VR6 wuld look good between the middle of those two! :wink:
  12. That will look superb on the BBS 8)
  13. I think I like those! Interested how they run? Are they bad for rubbin and a scrubbin? Matt
  14. THEY ARE LIKE £5 EACH! :shock: :lol:
  15. But I dont have any spline bits so i will have to go and buy the right one! :tongue: :lol:
  16. LOL cheers Kev I thought I would give your inbox a rest from my technical requests but low and behold :grin: Am I pushing it if I ask you what size spline head tool I need :wave: Cheers Matt
  17. I am sure it is relatively easy but just want to make sure I am not missing anything.... In particualr I am wanting to replace the front plastic plug holder and the actual VR6 DOHC cam plastic cover Thanks Matt
  18. It really is! You not tempted to keep it as a daily :norty: or is that just getting a bit silly :grin:
  19. Its not too bad mate. I am certainly no mechanic and didnt have any problems. There is a guide on here to taking the door cards off if you search Matt
  20. Really like those rime mate, very nice 8) Are they 16's? Are you going to lower it all?
  21. In my opinion yes. This is the sort of car you want to be doing big mileage in, cruising effortlessly in comfort on big continental jaunts. Not really the type of car you take out for a blast at the weekend.... Friend used to have one and it was lovely (840), fair bit quicker than the old VR, but bit barge like throught the twisties. I probably do less miles than you at 4k a year and thats why I have the Corrado as it is a nice car for long journeys but is REALLY nice for a quick blast now and again. Why not put our money into another money pit of an icon if you must :grin: and get something like this which would have you grinning ear to ear when you open the garage. :norty: Lancia-Delta_Integrale_1992_800x600_wallpaper_04.jpg[/attachment:qillhsew] Another mate had one of these as well. Fookin amazing car!!!! When it was working :lol: Enjoy whatever you get tho Matt
  22. Best off just getting wheels that fit in the first place n my humble opinion. Unless the offset is 55-60 and you can easily add a quality spacer
